While many have been enjoying Castle Crashers immensely, a select few have had some serious issues. Dropped connections and bouts of freezing have plagued the online play of some unfortunate gamers, making the otherwise-excellent game a bit less so. Thankfully, the game's developer, The Behemoth, has acknowledged the problems and is now working on a patch.

Word of the forthcoming patch arose during an interview with The Behemoth's Dan Paladin and Tom Fulp over at Joystiq. When questioned about the connections issues being experienced by some gamers, the pair humbly acknowledged the problem. "This was something that never came up in testing and now that there are problems with the Live release we're looking into it. We had six hour play sessions and nothing ever came up," said Fulp. "Just look at Call of Duty 4 when it came out. You couldn't play for a week straight and now it's fine," Paladin continued.

The two continued to say that a patch was currently in the works which would address the freezing and connection issues between players. "That's something we're already addressing by working with Microsoft to get a patch out as fast as possible," explained Paladin. Though there is no ETA, the pair noted that they were hoping to release it "as soon as possible."
